		The invasion of Sicily was a major Allied amphibious and airborne operation involving British, Canadian and American forces, tasked with taking the island from the Axis forces (Italy and Nazi Germany).
		The Americans in particular were resistant to any commitment to an operation which might conceivably delay the Normandy landings, or divert Allied power from the main theatre, France.

	TROOP CARRIER
		LADBROKE was to be a glider landing near Syracuse to seize a bridge across the canal south of the city in preparation for an advance by Field Marshall Montgomery’s British Eighth Army.
		Though LADBROKE was a miserable failure in terms of troops placed on target, the mission was a success because the few men who were in the right place managed to accomplish their assigned mission.
		Operation DRAGOON was aimed at the area around Cannes, the region known as the "Gold Coast." Troop carrier crews from the 51st wing took off from Italian bases in 400 C-47s, with each either laden with paratroopers or towing a glider.

	Ladbroke Racing Ltd v Commission of the European Communities. (Action for annulment) [1998] EUECJ T-67/94 (27 January ...
		As regards the criterion according to which the measure in question was not intended to finance a specific operation, Article 92(1) does not distinguish between measures of State intervention by reference to their causes or aims but defines them in relation to their effects.
		If, by contrast, Ladbroke considered that the Commission's reply to the first formal notice constituted a definition of its position, impliedly rejecting the part of the complaint in which the relevant measure was criticised, it ought to have brought an action for annulment under Article 173(5) of the Treaty.
		In order to overcome these difficulties the PMU decided in 1972 to computerise all its operations, a decision which, according to the Commission, was not in any way intended to enable it to expand its operations outside France, but was necessary in order to adjust to the economic and technical trends on the national market.

		Finally, Ladbroke alleges that competition is prevented, restricted or distorted by reason of the close links between the PMU and its principal suppliers.
		According to Ladbroke, the Commission did not understand that the abovementioned decree of 11 July 1930 at most required the sociétés de courses to act jointly, without however laying down detailed arrangements for such cooperation or obliging them to entrust all their off-course bets exclusively to a single third-party undertaking.
		Consequently, the Court considers that the conduct of the sociétés de courses and the PMU, impugned by Ladbroke in its complaint, could not have been fully assessed under Articles 85 and 86 of the Treaty without a prior evaluation of the national legislation in the light of the provisions of the Treaty.

		Gliders could support future operations (at home and abroad in land-locked or littoral nations) in situations where the economic, social, and political infrastructure has disintegrated to the point it geographically isolates a segment of the population from outside assistance.
		To signal the start of the operation, instead, parachutists were to drop on and seize three airfields — at first without any definite axis of attack and then expanding zones of control with follow-on forces, landed by glider and transport, until finally they ran together, like oil spots, extending over the island’s 170-mile length.
		Operation Repulse organized in the midst of the 1944 German winter Ardennes offensive due to a lack of parachute containers and para-packing units in the European Theater of Operations, ferried by glider a replacement field hospital accompanied by four surgeons to the American 101st Airborne Division encircled at Bastogne.

		We therefore recommend that Ladbroke be required to divest the Coral business in a manner approved by the Director General of Fair Trading within six months of the publication of our report.

		Let us take another look at what happened in the Ladbroke Grove crash, for not only was this a result of capitalism's profits-before-people unavoidability, but a far better diametrically opposite way of living and working was suddenly revealed amidst the chaos.
		At Ladbroke Grove, socialists saw for a brief period capitalism's habitual grip on people's lives shaken off by a shared disaster, and humankind's suppressed helpful co-operative nature suddenly came to the fore.

	Case Note: Crane Hire, Wire Netting and Ladbroke Racing
		As mobile cranes have an operational range of about 30 miles in each direction and contractors have to hire equipment from other companies if they are given work outside the area of operation of their own machines, the practical effect of this restriction was to dampen competition between hire companies.
		An analogous argument that arose in Ladbroke was whether compliance with national betting and gaming legislation which might prevent, restrict or distort competition or abuse a dominant position could infringe art 85 or 86 of the Treaty of Rome.
		The CFI quashed the refusal to act on the ground that the Commission could not have determined whether a case lay against PMU until it had determined whether the French government was in breach of art 90.
